Thanks Dan, the board is a P5Q Deluxe, and ram is D9's
The 780 is getting modded by CL3P20 as he is much stronger in that department than I, but I am thinking with the low ASIC (61%), and high memory clocks, 11 and FSE should be a blast on this card.

Hard mods on the 780 Ti or EPowered?

Crucial Ballistix is what I will be trying tomorrow, and no testing for max fsb or memory clock I was only on air after all.
Hard mods are being performed on the 780, but the 290 is bone stock

Well, you could try for max FSB on air.
Save a validation of max FSB when you can and submit it at the bot for some TPP.
Which Ballistix kit do you have? 5300, 6400 or 8500?
Nice clocks on the 290X!
That's a pretty late batch for E8600, no idea how they clock to be honest.
Congrats for taking down the single-core record!
Is the Vcore shown in CPU-Z correct?
Is this the first one you tried or the best so far from binning some of your chips? Do you bin on air or will you take the other five cold as well?
The Ballistix are 800 c4 bin and I ended up not even using them lol, I ende up using a single stick of my 2GB Pi 1200 c5 bin for the single core run since on prime it doesn't really matter.Well, you could try for max FSB on air.

Vcore is correct in cpuz and that is the first one I have tried, looking forward to testing the remaining onesI will take the other five cold as well, just waiting for more juice to get here on Tuesday. I only have 20L or less so I think I am going to give the X5260 a spin for hwbot prime as well, should be interesting as there is not much data on these Xeon's.
I saw you got a 9600 PI kit, they're very nice and they should be good for 650 MHz CL5.The Ballistix are 800 c4 bin and I ended up not even using them lol, I ende up using a single stick of my 2GB Pi 1200 c5 bin for the single core run since on prime it doesn't really matter.

You could try the outer memory slots too, the inner ones might not be the best for achieving high memory clocks.
Did you try higher Vcore? 1.632V seems so low for Core 2, but the low power bin might not like higher Vcore. I'm curious what's the case here!
Can you run some other benchmarks ( like SPi etc ) on the two Xeons when you got some time?
I have like 3 8400s laying around unused...
Asus Rampage IV Extreme
4930k @4.875
G.Skill Trident X 2666 Cl10
Gtx 780 SC
1600w Lepa Gold
Samsung 840 Pro 256GB
One of those could give you a wr at the very least a boat load of boints!
I usually use the outer slots on newer stuff, was not sure about this but will try that with the next chips.I saw you got a 9600 PI kit, they're very nice and they should be good for 650 MHz CL5.

Also tested the first X5260, E0 stepping seemed to not want to run much more than 605FSB regardless of vcore used, so maybe time to tinker with GTL's and NB voltages.
Also small update to the single core
One thing about these s771 cpus is they are super cheap! I don't think my DFI mobos will support them though. Are you insulating some of the pins or can you just slap the cpu in and fire it up?
Hey Crabby, you will need something to block two pins on the back side, I bought 40 stickers from AliExpress and they got here reasonably quickly and cheaply hence the 771 binning madness
Well, do you have a S775 board?
Did you try the outer slots?
The X5260 seems to perform just like an average E8600, what batch is it? ( It is an E8600 after all...)
Is this your first time on S775? Can you give me the rest of your ( voltage ) settings? Try tuning the FSB on air!
Good clocks on the L3014!
You need these stickers and you have to remove the two notches in the socket that ensure correct CPU seating on S775 CPUs.
PS: Nice Q6600 scores!

I did some research and found a thread here on xs and also found a seller on e bay but now the price is higher than it was yesterday lol. I'm content with what I have atm......
The Q6600 yes, I've had it for soooo long! Came in the 2nd pc I owned/bought back in 07. It needs so much vcore, 1.5+ for 3.6GHz. I'm using it to load and tune my ss hahahaha. The day after I set it up on my bench table the "April's Final Team Cup Warm-up" contest started and there is a Q6600 stage! I started with my HD3870, now I'm benching with my GTX 460. Not yet at the score I want but I still have more tuning to do and also try xp. I do have a new gpu inbound and its a bad mf lol, the single most expensive pc component I have ever bought and it has a ti in the name.
Unfortunately the pictures in the thread seem to be lost. Here's another thread that you might find interesting.
Wow, 1.5V for 3.6 GHz, almost as bad as my first E6600.
Post some pics when the monster arrives!
Please welcome filmbot!
man that 290x sucks lol.
nice clocks bruh
Current Status - Testing & Research
Welcome filmbot
Glad to have you on the team
A quick 3dmark11 run with my new GIGABYTE GV-N78TOC-3GD. I'll take some pics of the card as soon as I stop testing/playing with it hahaha.

Yay! I'm looking forward to seeing your scores!
Niiiiiiiice!
Brought it back home guys
Lowest VID cpu of all tested samples, it needs 1.65v for 6045Mhz R11.5, will retry tomorrow as things were getting a bit wet so time to let everything dry.
quick and dirty valid
Congrats George, very well done! You went up to #13 in the Overclockers League too!Brought it back home guys
